Obviously I meant literature faggot.

Are we to consider Pound to be symbolist? Obviously he's also a modernist, influenced by symbolists, but a pure one?

peanut butter unto him

I like it, a lot.

Some of the most beautiful poetry I've read.

His philosophical/spiritual messages shouldn't be taken seriously however.

If anyone here is lost, it's you.

Just over half way through A Farewell to Arms. Really enjoying it so far.

The Process, by Kafka. So far it has been really enjoyable.

Rousseau's Confessions. I must say I really am enjoying it.

1) Why are you reading it? Only to prep you for the Greeks? If yes, then just read the sections on the families, the heroes, and the Trojan War.

2) Take breaks in your reading; drink some coffee or tea.

Im reading it because I want my brain to get some kind of exercise other than just headbashing itself against the wall whilst im playing D3 all day long. Also I want to get down to the philosophers and then later nietchze thats my goal in terms of authors.

Well, I feel like im running a marathon by just reading two pages in this book every time. I dont think taking breaks is the problem solver here

Sounds like you've ruined your brain playing video games and masturbation. Sorry bud it's a long road to recovery

Female voices are simply inferior to male in all respects. It's because women simply don't understand the ethical, aesthetic, and spiritual import of being a human being.

They're like dogs or children, simply inferior, and barely more conscious than rocks.

Let's face it, they're only wet holes and otherwise worthless

>its a "Greg talking about his non-The Room related acting experiences chapter"

>>7628470
i think this is satire.

n-none?

book of the courtier is the only one that you should maybe consider reading/is worthwhile, but that's only if you're invested in understanding some of the social/courtly aspects of culture in the ~16th - 17th centuries

Meditations by my man Marcus.

Don't share online until you're ready to ask for money. "writers" prey off people posting good ideas for free, so start by talking to friends you trust in order to build in the directions you think will help your work. When you have a strong draft have someone with an eye for punctuation read it and offer ideas to edit it. Only show your work to people who want to help you succeed.

don't listen to >>7626035
instead share your stories with me at [email protected] and I'll publish them online under my name and collect $2.75 in the next year in the royalties I get from selling your work on amazon. Thank you for your time, and keep reading Vern & Sisters publications.

just start writing, lazy fucker.

I like Pasternak's book adaptation.

I think P/V is fine in a lot of cases and /lit/ overreacts/memes about their deficiencies too much, but I think this (along with Master and Margarita) are cases where P/V is the objectively inferior choice.

Go with the original Harari/Hayward translation.

Yes, I actually really loved it!

Totally recommend.

It's garbage. Didn't capture well DFW at all.

Touching film with a great performance by Segel, who completely outweighed that obnoxious Jew Eisenberg's performance. Went in expecting to hate it and left with a stolen redbox dvd.
